I have a 10cc standard band as well, and I have been banded almost 2yrs and I have less than 5ccs in my band. I have learned from experiences it's never good to be too tight. When someone becomes too tight it encourage poor food choices and you run the risk of developing reflux issues (not fun at all). I have found for (me) that my success came from learning when enough was enough and not to take that next bit of food. A band is a tool and it 's not going to do the work for you. Yes, some people do gain for several different reasons. It could be water weight/ slider foods that may be higher in calories. You just need to look at all the different thigns that is going on with you to determine what's causes your weight gain. Also, do you work at ?

Good luck. Always remember that more in your band don't mean more weight lost! Everyone's tolerance is totally different.

Hi,

I had that problem last month and waited two weeks before I went back to see them and they took some out, I have no idea about the cc's but I couldn't hold anything down for about and all I lost was about 2 pounds,

I know I just need to start working out but I am so tired in the evenings that I just sit, wish I had a friend who lived close by that would go walking with me.

Anyway I was just commenting and did'nt mean to sound whiney

thanks
